The Reunion After Seven Years

Baron knew that Nicole could understand the subtle message he was trying to give her.

With an awkward smile, Nicole lowered her head and ate her steak earnestly.

She wanted to work hard, but her own boss forbade her to work for the day!

Avery felt as if their meeting was too short to make up for lost time. She had an idea. "Nicole, aren't you feeling a little tired? Do you want to go to my place tonight? I've really missed you, and we still have a lot to talk about."

She looked at Nicole. They hadn't seen each other for years, so she naturally had a lot to ask Nicole. She couldn't possibly let her go so quickly.

"Sure! That sounds good to me. I've missed you a lot too. I can stay at your house tonight. We have a lot to catch up on."

After what happened with Kerr, Nicole was glad she was away from him. She didn't know how to face Kerr. Though Avery saved her, she was a little worried about Jay when he was with Kerr.

But she didn't have a lot of time left. She would leave with Jay after the bidding. She wanted to give the father and son a bit of time to be with each other.

When he saw Nicole's reaction, Barron felt even more depressed.

He could sense that there must be something going on between Nicole and Kerr that he didn't know of. If she was eager to avoid Kerr like this, it must be something big.

"I'll drive you there. I still have some business to discuss with you."

Baron wouldn't give her up so easily.

"Okay."

Nicole reluctantly agreed. The meal went on for quite a while to her, but she still didn't feel that it was enough. They left the restaurant. Nicole walked to Baron's car, while Avery walked to hers.

On the drive over, Baron couldn't help but acknowledge the elephant in the room. "What happened between you and Kerr?"
